OK... i have done a little searching and came across tons of discussion on about how these lights won't just fit right on. To the one or two of you who have actually done it, what modifications did you do to the lights to get them to fit. I am not going to be modding a set, but I need to know for other reasons which i will be telling you all about in a few weeks. Btw I have seen the photos of the Black SVT with morettes retrofitted. Nicely done!!!

I remember a quote from , I belive SVTPete... and I quote.. "It's not really worth hasssle, and it still doesn't totally match up... it's for the faint at heart." MEaning... cut, bend, weld, hack, break, cry, bleed, wet, kick, and done.

Well, the main thing isn't the fabrication to make them fit our mounts, it's that their fenders/hood/grille/bumper are different shaped. They look the same, but they're not. So if you wanted it to look perfect, you'd need a front clip off a Mondeo.

I disagree. One could do the necessary mods to make them look like they are OEM, but it would take a decent amount of skilled labor.

Ya, I suppose if ya know about body work ya could get it to fit pretty good. I don't know body work, except how to replace panels... yay.
